My mum used to :oops: She said she liked the health and dietary advice because if you waited long enough, whatever you did would be pronounced as healthy :lol: (And when, the following week, it became a cancer risk, she could choose to ignore it because she read it in the Daily Mail :wink: )

Well, I have no preconceived thoughts on the Daily Wail since I've never heard of it before. :lol: But this piece was certainly well done. Congratulations to both Rosie and Horus!! That was a great piece and I loved the video too. :D :D I'm in awe of all you've accomplished together.

It is brilliant :D

And classic newspaper! They've gone and spelled his name wrong - Pretty sure it's Horace!

Thanks Em for sharing this, I'm on holiday at the moment with limited internet so haven't shared it a lot!! His name is in fact Horus, his age is wrong and I have had for 5 years not 3, but other than that it actually isn't too inaccurate. I am really chuffed with the video, the photographer was super and very respectful. It is really exciting, but the main aim was to advertise the deaf dog network. I have also accepted an offer to do a piece for the magazine Real People which will be happening in the coming months. But 4 national newspapers is not a bad start!!

Ah, well when I first joined I had only had him a couple of weeks, and he was indeed Horace then, because the rescue renamed him due to no-one pronouncing his name right. I changed it back after 4 weeks but haven't been able to change it on here!! There is good reason, Horus has much more meaning for him than Horace, and I recently discovered it is part of his heritage, the whole litter were named after egyptian gods as they were so unusual from the start - I always thought he must have had really weird owners before I got him!! Thank god I didn't get Tutankamun!!
